    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    The crystal structure of Ni(UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ • 4H₂O has been solved using three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data obtained with an automatic dif-fractometer. The space group is Pnam. The final R factor is 0.069 with anisotropic thermal parameters for the cations and isotropic factors for the oxygen atoms. The crystal is built up by [(UO₂) ₂ V₂O₈]n[charged 2n-] slabs parallel to (001) which contain symmetry centers. Nickel atoms and the four water molecules linked to them lie in the mirror plane. The octahedron of oxygen around nickel is completed by oxygens from, uranyl group symmetrically related by the mirror plane.La structure cristalline de Ni(UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ • 4H₂O a été résolue à l'aide des données de diffraction des rayons X à trois dimensions, mesurées à l'aide d'un diffractomètre automatique Nonius. Le groupe spatial est Pnam. Le facteur R obtenu est égal à 0,069 avec les facteurs d'agitation thermique anisotrope pour les cations et isotrope pour les atomes d'oxygène. Le cristal est contitué par des feuillets [(UO₂) ₂ V₂O₈]n[chargés 2n-] parallèles au plan (001) contenant les centres de symétrie.

    A detailed study of vanuralite has shown that a less hydrated form exists, meta-vanuralite, the transformation from one to the other being reversibly dependent on the humidity of the atmosphere. Vanuralite Al (UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ (OH) . 11H₂O is monoclinic A2/a with a = 10.55 Å, b = 8.44 Å, c = 24.52 Å and β = 103° and with Z = 4. The main powder lines with indices are 11.98 (vvs) 002, 5.98 (vs) 004, 3.795 (s) 006-022, 3.231 (s) 31[-1], 3.180 Å (s) 31[-3]. A twin by pseudosymmetry exists with composition plane (001). Meta-vanuralite Al (UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ (OH).8H₂O is triclinic with a = 10.46 Å, b = 8.44 Å, c = 10.43 Å, α = 75° 53', β = 102° 50', γ = 90° and with Z = 2. The main powder lines with indices are 9.02 (vvs) 001, 4.174 (vs) 021, 4.086 (s) 020-102, 3.240 (s) [-3]11, 3.155 (vs) 221-311, 3,073 Å (s) 3[-1]0-22[-1]. The transition from a monoclinic to a triclinic cell occurs by reduction of the distance between the perfect (001) cleavage planes and slip parallel to the 6-axis. Meta-vanuralite (8H₂O) is stable at 20° C in an atmosphere of relative humidity between 47 and 28 %.L'étude détaillée de la vanuralite a montré qu'il existait une forme moins hydratée, la méta-vanuralite, le passage de l'une à l'autre étant réversible et dépendant du degré hygrométrique de l'atmosphère. La vanuralite Al (UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ (OH) . 11H₂O est monoclinique A2/a avec les paramètres a = 10,55 Å, b = 8,44 Å, c = 24,52 Å and β = 103° et Z = 4. Les raies principales du diagramme de poudre indexé sont : 11,98 (FFF) 002, 5,98 (FF) 004, 3,975 (F) 006-022, 3,231 (F) 31[-1], 3,180 (F) 31[-3]. Il existe une macle par pseudo-symétrie avec accolement suivant (001). La méta-vanuralite Al (UO₂)₂ (VO₄)₂ (OH) . 8H₂O est triclinique avec a = 10,46 Å, b = 8,44 Å, c = 10,43 Å, α = 75° 53', β = 102° 50', γ = 90° et Z = 2. Les raies principales du diagramme de poudre indexé sont : 9,92 (FFF), 001, 4,174 (FF), 021, 4,086 (F) 020-102, 3,240 (F) [-3]11, 3,155 (FF) 221-31[-1], 3,073 (F) 3[-1]0-22[-1]. Le passage de la maille monoclinique à la maille triclinique s'effectue par diminution de la distance entre les plans (001) (clivage parfait) et glissement parallèlement au paramètre b. La méta-vanuralite est stable (8H₂O) à 20° C dans une atmosphère dont le degré d'humidité relative est compris entre 47 et 28 %.Cesbron Fabien. Nouvelles données sur la vanuralite.

    Bariandite a new hydrated vanadium oxide IV and V. Bariandite V₂O₄ • 4V₂O₅ • 12H₂O was found in mineralized sandstones of the uranium-vanadium deposit at Mounana, Gabon, associated with duttonite VO (OH)₂ and lenoblite V₂O₄ • 2H₂O. It is monoclinic, pseudo-orthorhombic, with a = 11.70 Å, b = 3.63 Å, c = 29.06 Å, β = 101° 30' and Z = 2 ; space group : Cc or C2 lc. Bariandite is distinguishable from corvusite V₂O₄ • 6V₂O₅ • nH₂O by its powder pattern : 14.20 Å (vvs) 002 ; 5.72 (m) 200-20[-2] ; 3.480 (s) 110-11[-1] ; 3.430 (s) 111-11[-2] ; 2.852 (m) 400-40[-4]. Crystals are elongated on [010] with a perfect cleavage (001). The measured specific gravity is 2.7 and the refractive indices greater than 1.85. The chemical analysis gave : V₂O₅ = 63.26 %, V₂O₄ = 14.19 %, Fe₂O₃ = 0.17 % Al₂O₃ = 3.75 %, H₂O = 18.11 %, sum = 100,08 %. At 20° C, composition V₂O₄ . 4V₂O₅ • 12H₂O is obtained, under partial pressure of water vapour, betweed 14 and 5 mm Hg. Differential thermal analysis curve shows two endothermic breaks at 100° C and 135° C (dehydration) and another at 676° C corresponding to melting of V₂O₅La bariandite V₂O₄ • 4V₂O₅ • 12H₂O a été trouvée dans les grès minéralisés du gisement d'uranium et de vanadium de Mounana, Gabon, associée à la duttonite VO (OH)₂ et à la lenoblite V₂O₄ • 2H₂O.
